Welcome! Before you book an appointment, please write to me at lizvanhoose.editor@gmail.com and let me know a little bit about you, your work and the guidance you seek. I’ll respond with various feedback options and pricing information. To those of you who’ve been in touch: I'm looking forward to talking with you.

Here is an outline of what to expect once you book an appointment.

1. You and I will receive a confirmation email. The message will include a link and dial-in information for a Zoom meeting.

2. Unless we've made other arrangements, you'll send me the materials you'd like for me to read by 7 a.m. the morning we are scheduled to chat.

3. At the appointed time, you'll join the Zoom meeting provided in the appointment confirmation message. I'll be standing by to speak with you. A recording will be generated automatically.

5. Together we'll talk about voice, character, plotting, atmospherics, narrative structure, and great works of today and of yore that offer copious models from which one can learn about various aspects of craft.

6. If you have any questions or concerns, please write to me at lizvanhoose.editor@gmail.com.

Thank you!
